Knitting Daily Stitch Guide



Stitches

Straight stitches can be worked side by side or radiating out from a center point. For best results, avoid stitches that are too long, too loose, or too close together.

*Bring threaded needle out from back to front at the base of the knitted stitch(es) you want to cover. Insert the needle at the top of the stitch(es) you want to cover. Repeat from * (Figure 1).
